Summer time an' the livin' is easy
Fish are jumping, an' the cotton is high
Oh yo' daddy's rich, an' yo' ma is good lookin'
So hush, little baby, don' yo' cry
One of these mornin's
You goin' to rise up singin'
Then you'll spread yo' wings, an' you'll take the sky
But till that mornin' , there's a nothin' can harm you
With Daddy an' Mammy standin' by
Fish are jumping, an' the cotton is high
Oh yo' daddy's rich, an' yo' ma is good lookin'
So hush, little baby, don' yo' cry
One of these mornin's
You goin' to rise up singin'
Then you'll spread yo' wings, an' you'll take the sky
But till that mornin' , there's a nothin' can harm you
With Daddy an' Mammy standin' by
